overseas seller - advice needed

hi all

I just won an auction for a really expensive keyboard here:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320240643253

The seller is based in Belgium. He sent me a Paypal invoice which I paid
yet he said he hadn't received it. I checked on Paypal and the transaction
showed as "unclaimed" - it seemed his email address wasn't recognised on
Paypal at all. He's now sent me a different invoice directly to my email
address and on this one, it has a different email address for him. Checking
on Paypal, the address is recognised and it all looks legit but I'm feeling
a little cautious as this really is rather a large sum of money I'm paying
out for this item! Should I ask him to get his email address corrected on
Ebay and then send me another invoice so that it's all being done under the
Ebay umbrella...?

Hope that makes sense and someone can help...

cheers
